Hey, if a player told me they want to tie a giant’s shoelaces together, I wouldn’t go ask a book if I had permission to let them, I’d just think to myself, “Actually, I was totally imagining this giant with sandles. I mean, shoelaces would have to be anchor chains from the titanic, which you would have no way of dragging much less tying together… but I like where you’re going with this.”, but what I actually say is, “You do it. He fails flat on his face and *WHOOF*… he gets the wind knocked out of him. …which blows you off your feet. While you’re in the air you think, “Maybe I should have thought this trough a bit longer.” Then you land on your ass. You take 1 point of damage to your tailbone and won’t be able to sit for two days. …and you’re sitting right next to a giant eyeball which is looking right at you. Run for your life.” Rolls do not matter, rules do not matter, any book which tells me how I MUST do things MUST be torn apart and thrown in the garbage; the only thing that matters is…
